High school basketball superstar LeBron James was suspended for accepting sports jerseys, a violation of Ohio high school sports rules. Whether the rule is stupid or not, James isn’t the victim. He’s a person expected to be the NBA’s number one draft pick this summer. Both Nike and Adidas are luring him […]
Kevin Holtsberry is tracking his 2003 book list. I’m tempted to do the same. (Currently reading Bernard Lewis’ Islam and the West.) It would be a separate page so I wouldn’t bore the hell out of you. No snoozing at my weblog, that could be TAM’s motto.

Another Sean has had problems with MT. Don’t worry guys, no firearms or bricks in my vicinity. Whether it’s real or not, I feel for the guy. Here’s my favorite quote:
If they had better instruction manuals I would’ve got their software working weeks ago. But their manuals are a disaster, and […]
Lance Armstrong stood up to cancer and won. Would anyone expect him to back down from going after a fifth straight Tour de France just because of a war?

Why I ever bothered with Movable Type, I don’t know. Installing it was a little tricky, but I understood that since it was the first time I really played around with perl scripts.
Now, I have this really nice design all ready and waiting (thanks, Joni). You’d love it, and I’d love to show […]
Germany has a problem with potato guns. A munitions expert said, “What started out as an extreme form of paintball has become deadly dangerous.”
OUCH!
No one tell al-Qaeda about the lethal potential for these Kartoffelkanone.
With a range of 200 metres they could split a man’s head at 15 metres and penetrate a wooden wall at […]
This letter by eight European nations tosses any claims of U.S. unilateralism right out the window. Spain, Portugal, Italy, the U.K., Hungary, Poland, Denmark, and the Czech Republic have united with the U.S. in oppostion to Saddam and Islamist terrorism.
The Iraqi regime and its weapons of mass destruction represent a clear threat to world […]

The line I took away from last night’s State of the Union speech was this: “Free people will set the course of history.” Last century, the free people of the United States fought against fascism and communism and won.

In a report, the Institute of Directors, a British business group, guessed that a short war with Iraq would relieve world uncertainty, lower oil prices, and put the U.S. economy on a healthy 2.9% growth rate this year. I’ll bring up Rich Galen’s point again. If uncertainty is holding back the world economy, […]
Christopher Reeve can say all he wants that stem cell research should continue on all fronts–using both adult and embryonic stem cells. In Australia, he made the case that embryonic stem cell research was showing promise. What Reeve failed to address was the ethical problem with creating human embryoes just to kill them […]
